WIPO IPC-Green Technology Concordance
A Harmonized Classification Methodology
This paper introduces the World Intellectual Property Organization's Green Technology Inventory for Statistical Use (WIPO–GTIS), a new harmonized methodology for classifying green technologies. Developed through a systematic, consensus-based process, it relies solely on an IPC–Green Technology Concordance Table, validated through AI-assisted quality control, and comprises five sectors and 36 technology fields mapped to specific IPC codes. The paper reviews and compares existing classification systems (CNIPA, EPO, JPO, OECD and WIPO's IPC Green Inventory); presents the WIPO–GTIS methodology and taxonomy; demonstrates its application using global patent data to reveal trends in green technology innovation and specialization; and discusses the classification's limitations and opportunities for future refinement.

Global Innovation Index 2025: Innovation at a Crossroads
The Global Innovation Index 2025 reveals innovation systems at a crossroads, where breakthrough technologies in AI and quantum computing advance rapidly while investment growth slows and collaborative models evolve to address global challenges. Tracking the most recent global innovation trends, the GII captures a moment of recalibration where R&D growth has slowed, venture capital activity has moderated with cautious early-stage funding, and patenting gains remain modest, even as collaboration grows through networked ecosystems and multi-stakeholder platforms.
